Portret

Neda Kovinić pursued her PhD in performance and documentary installations, at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Belgrade. She has the Master of Painting at the Faculty of Fine Arts, and the Master of Interior design at the Faculty of the Applied Arts in Belgrade, Serbia. 

Since 1996, she has been exhibiting at solo and group exhibitions in Serbia and abroad. She has made ambient installations, thus forming art basis close to conceptual art. In her recent projects, she has been trying to face the facts of the multitude of temporality and the space of global capitalism – from the neoliberal to the conservative one, the retro-local and the national. She explores types of escapism in artificial autonomies, the space of escape and retreat, especially in former Yugoslavia after the wars and the rise of nationalism.
Her latest research is based on creating networks between artists of conceptual dance and various nationalities, dance backgrounds and age, in order to create the practice of togetherness, care, and the exploration of social, political and art-political issues.
